Re: Travel tips for bringing a 15-month old to STJ

Oh and don't forget to book Leslie at Kid's Night In to watch your little one and take some time to enjoy the island as an adult! I sure wish we had someone like her years ago for my husband and I to enjoy a nice dinner and some alone time. She is fantastic and must have for your vacation!

Re: What airlines are you using now to get to the islands

FinsUp: Awesome deal, congratulations! What carrier, what week, and any stops? April is high demand, with New England school breaks and many villas dropping to low season, which often leads to really high airfares. The big shift from BOS over the last few years has been American pulling out of dire...
